Back2Basics SMP is a semi vanilla survival server that feels really chill and simple. It started in December 2023 and now has new ownership. The whole idea is to keep Minecraft feeling pure but add a few tweaks that make survival more fun and fair.
There is a player driven economy where you can buy sell and trade using in game currency. You can earn stuff by exploring doing events or just being smart with trading. There is also a cosmetic store but the cool part is you can earn the perks and rewards in game and you do not need your wallet.
The server uses custom lightweight plugins to keep things smooth. Keep inventory is on so if you die to a mob or another player you keep your gear. There is random teleport with rtp so you can jump to a fresh spot and start a new base. Land claiming is done with commands like claim claims and viewclaims so your builds are protected from griefers.
They run weekend events like build battles staff hunts and quests every Saturday and Sunday with in game rewards. The staff team is active and on daily and the community is newbie friendly so both new players and experienced ones can join easily.
You can play on versions from 1.9 up to 1.21 and higher but they recommend using the newest version for the best experience.

I found a brand new LifeSteal SMP that just opened and it already had around 10 active players at the start. It is a paid host and it is made for people who want real PvP and want to test their skills.
The server has a 20 heart limit and a 10k world border. There is also a 3 mace limit. Bedrock players are welcome too and it runs on version 1.21.11.
It is trying to stay fair because there are no admins and even the owner does not have OP. There is spawn protection and rules against killing naked players or spawn killing.
It also has regular survival plugins like villager in a bucket and string dupers so it feels like the usual grind but with higher stakes.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPRepulse SMP Fast Lifesteal PvP
